In this paper, the effects of multi-component gas on the properties and components of tight oil are studied. First, the core displacement experiments using the CH_(4)/CO_(2) multi-component gas are conducted to determine the oil displacement efficiency under different CO_(2) and CH_(4) ratios. Then, a viscometer and a liquid density balance are used to investigate the change characteristics of oil viscosity and density after multi-component gas displacement with different CO_(2) and CH_(4) ratios. In addition, a laboratory scale numerical model is established to validate the experimental results. Finally, a composition model of multi-stage fractured horizontal well in tight oil reservoir considering nano-confinement effects is established to investigate the effects of multi-component gas on the components of produced dead oil and formation crude oil. The experimental results show that the oil displacement efficiency of multi-component gas displacement is greater than that of single-component gas displacement. The CH_(4) decreases the viscosity and density of light oil, while CO_(2) decreases the viscosity but increases the density. And the numerical simulation results show that CO_(2) extracts more heavy components from the liquid phase into the vapor phase, while CH_(4) extracts more light components from the liquid phase into the vapor phase during cyclic gas injection. The multi-component gas can extract both the light components and the heavy components from oil, and the balanced production of each component can be achieved by using multi-component gas huff-puff.展开更多

Novel ternary intermetallic compounds R2TX3 (R = rare-earth element or U, T = transition-metal element, X = Si, Ge, Ga, In) are a significant branch of this research field due to their complex and intriguing physical properties, such as magnetic order at low temperature, spin-glass behavior, Kondo effect, heavy fermion behavior, and so on.

Then, its structure, elastic properties, electronic structure, and chemical bonding are investigated by first-principles calculations with the density functional theory. The phonon calculation and elastic constants confirm that the predicted NB2 is dynamically and mechanically stable, respectively. The large bulk modulus, large shear modulus, large Young's modulus, and small Poisson's ratio show that the 14m2 NB2 should be a new superhard material with a calculated theoretical Vickers hardness value of 66 GPa. Further analysis on density of states and electron localization function demonstrate that the strong B B and 13 N covalent bonds are the main reason for its high hardness in 14m2 NB2.展开更多

Maintaining wellbore integrity in these environments, particularly in HPHT reservoirs with corrosive gases, presents a significant challenge. Robust risk evaluation and mitigation strategies are required to address these reservoirs' safety, economic, and environmental uncertainties. This study investigates chemo-mechanical properties degradations of class G oil well cement blended with silica fume, liquid silica, and latex when exposed to high temperature (150 °C) and high partial pressure of CO_(2) saturated brine. The result shows that these admixtures surround the cement grains and fill the interstitial spaces between the cement particles to form a dense crystal system of C–S–H. Consequently, the cement's percentage of pore voids, permeability, and the content of alkali compounds reduce, resulting in increased resistance to CO_(2) corrosion. Liquid silica, a specially prepared silica suspension, is a more effective alternative to silica fume in protecting oil well cement against CO_(2) chemical degradation. Micro-indentation analysis shows a significant deterioration in the mechanical properties of the cement, including average elastic modulus and hardness, particularly in the outer zones in direct contact with corrosive fluids. This study highlights the significance of incorporating admixtures to mitigate the effects of CO_(2) corrosion in HPHT environments and provides a valuable technique for quantitatively evaluating the mechanical-chemical degradation of cement sheath.展开更多

Two series of Ca2FeMoO6and Nd0.3Ca1.7FeMoO6ceramics sintered at(1050℃, 1200℃, and 1300℃) were specially designed to comparatively investigate the band-filling effect and Fe/Mo disorder on the physical properties of Ca2FeMoO6. The x-ray diffraction indicates that Fe/Mo disorder is sensitive to the sintering temperature. The magnetization behavior is mainly controlled by the Fe/Mo disorder not by the band filling effect, manifested by a close correlation of saturated magnetization(Ms) with the Fe/Mo disorder. Interestingly, magnetoresistance(MR) property of the same composition is dominantly contributed by the grain boundary strength, which can be expressed by the macroscopic resistivity values. However, the band filling effect caused by the Nd-substitution can decrease the spin polarization, and thus suppress the MR performance fundamentally. Contrary to the MR response, the Curie temperature(TC) shows an obvious optimization due to the band filling effect, which increases the carrier density near the Fermi level responsible for the ferromagnetic coupling interaction strengthen. Maybe, our work can provoke further research interests into the correlation of the band-filling effects and Fe/Mo disorder with the physical properties of other Fe/Mo-based double perovskites.展开更多

These materials are prepared by chemical deposition and anode oxidation methods, respectively. The sizes of nano TiO2 are 80 nm and 1000 nm, respectively, their infrared properties of absorption are different, the characteristic peaks of the former are 1271,1615, 2957 and 3422 cm-1, the latter are 1645 and 2356 cm-1. The nano TiO2 tubes can be formed by anode oxidation method, its diameters are between 50-100 nm, different nano TiO2 tubes contain different components of oxygen and titanium. In MTT experiment we discover the changes of properties of proliferation of the liver and chick embryo fibroblast cells under influences of nanoTiO2 relative to those of the controlled groups, when small nanoTiO2 suspension is added in these cultivated liquids of cell, but the influence of nano TiO2 on the proliferation of the person’s liver cell is still very small, therefore, the toxicities of nano TiO2 containing 80nm and 1000 nm to these cells are still first score.展开更多

The nano TiO2 tubes can be formed by anode oxidation method, its diameters are between 50-100 nm, different nano TiO2 tubes contain different components of oxygen and titanium. In MTT experiment we discover the changes of properties of proliferation of the liver and chick embryo fibroblast cells under influences of nanoTiO2 relative to those of the controlled groups, when small nanoTiO2 suspension is added in these cultivated liquids of cell, but the influence of nano TiO2 on the proliferation of the person’s liver cell is still very small, therefore, the toxicities of nano TiO2 containing 80nm and 1000 nm to these cells are still first score.
文摘Carbon dioxide(CO_(2))capture and sequestration through CO_(2)enhanced oil recovery(EOR)in oil reservoirs is one of the approaches considered to reduce CO_(2)emission into the atmosphere.The injection of CO_(2)into a subsurface geological formation may lead to chemical reactions that may affect the formation pore structure and characteristics.In this study,the effect of CO_(2)ebrineerock interaction on the rock petrophysical properties and mineral volume fraction was numerically investigated during CO_(2)injection into a chalk reservoir rock.A 3D numerical modeling and simulation were conducted using COMSOL®Multiphysics commercial software of computational fluid dynamics(CFD)to simulate CO_(2)ebrine core flooding process in a chalk core.The model was validated against a coreescale experimental data from literature.Simulation differential pressure data matched the literature experimental data closely and consistently indicating good agreement between them.Temperature effect on the performance of CO_(2)ebrineechalk sequestration was also evaluated in the present study.Results indicated that porosity was only slightly affected by temperature increase during CO_(2)injection in contrast to permeability that was substantially affected by temperature.Moreover,chemical reactions enhanced as temperature increased leading to significant increase in permeability.Thus,carbonated brine sequestration excelled at elevated temperature due to increased acidity which governs the sequestration process.The developed model maybe considered as a reliable tool to optimize various operating parameters of CO_(2)ebrine sequestration.
